III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
Many departments within Contra Costa County have identified specific needs for GIS (Geographic
Information Systems) applications which will allow them to answer questions that, to date, they
have only been able to ask. These answers will allow the departments to better serve the pudic.
The foundation for any GIS effort is the land base. The Public Works Department maintains the
County Basemap in digital CAD (Computer Aided Drafting) files. A GIS coordinator within the
Public Works Department will facilitate both the conversion of the County Basemap into a GIS
format and the development of sophisticated GIS applications.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
A negative action on this item would severely impair all county efforts for GIS development.
